By the way, I see from your info that you live in Oklahoma. The Red River Valley there is spectacular (everyone, imagine dirt roads. Now, imagine dirt roads that are a vivid, almost blood, red. So red and vivid they shine in the moonlight amidst the darkened fields. All of southern Oklahoma is like that.) The Red River would be spectacular, if it had not dried up (which it did. I saw it for myself. A jaw dropper, this drought we are having in America.) In my post above, I talked about my other paladin, Anora. In Anora, you have a paladin who is ruthless in manners of killing, but highly principalled concerning the matter of war. She will behead a helpless, chained captive, fire poisoned arrows at a charging man, or use a Death Spell on a horde of attacking orcs. She will even torture a prisoner for information. She will not, however, harm an innocent. If a village is infected with a disease, she will go there and help the people. If an orc (or a drow, or even an illithid) came to talk, she would carry on a friendly conversation. If a kender showed up, and others wanted to kill it, she would exercise understanding, patience, and tolerance - she would stop the killing if possible. She is not at all like Osilovar. He would faint at the notion of poison, killing the helpless, torture, and the like. However, his radical charges, horn blowing, and fell deeds in battle, are the stuff of Arthurian Knights.
